Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ಒ has the Unicode code point U+0C92. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800
to0xffff
.
Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 16 bits within the final 24 bits and that it will have the format:1110xxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx
Where thex
are the payload bits.UTF-8 Encoding bit layout by codepoint range Codepoint Range Bytes Bit pattern Payload length U+0000 - U+007F 1 0xxxxxxx 7 bits U+0080 - U+07FF 2 110xxxxx 10xxxxxx 11 bits U+0800 - U+FFFF 3 1110xxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 16 bits U+10000 - U+10FFFF 4 11110xxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 21 bits Step 2: Obtain the payload bits:
Convert the hexadecimal code point U+0C92 to binary:
00001100 10010010
. Those are the payload bits.Step 3: Fill in the bits to match the bit pattern:
Obtain the final bytes by arranging the paylod bits to match the bit layout:
11100000 10110010 10010010
KANNADA LETTER O·U+0C92

Description
U+0C92, known as Kannada Letter O, is a character within the Unicode Standard that holds significant importance in the Kannada language. The Kannada script, an abugida system, forms the basis of written communication in the Karnataka region of India and other regions where Kannada-speaking communities reside. U+0C92 represents a vowel and plays a vital role in digital text representation of the Kannada language. It is crucial for accurate translation, search engine optimization, and overall digital communication, as it helps maintain linguistic integrity when processing, storing, and transmitting information across various platforms. By including U+0C92 in digital systems, we ensure that the rich cultural and linguistic context of Kannada literature, history, and traditions are preserved for future generations to appreciate and study.
